Representing Plans Under Uncertainty: A Logic of Time, Chance, and Action By Peter Haddawy Publisher: Spri.,.nger 1994 | 139 Pages | ISBN: 3540576975 , 0387576975 | PDF | 6 MB This monograph integrates AI and decision-theoretic approaches to the representation of planning problems by developing a first-order logic of time, chance, and action for representing and reasoning about plans. The semantics of the logic incorporates intuitive properties of time, chance, and action central to the planning problem. The logical language integrates both modal and probabilistic constructs and allows quantification over time points, probability values, and domain individuals. The language can represent the chance that facts hold and events occur at various times and that actions and other events affect the future. An algorithm for the problem of building construction planning is developed...

An Introduction to Algorithmic Trading: Basic to Advanced Strategies (Wiley Trading) by: Edward Leshik, Jane Cralle Wiley; 2 edition (April 26, 2011) | ISBN: 0470689544 | 538 pages | PDF | 1 MB Algorithmic trading is becoming the industry lifeblood – it is cheaper, faster and easier to control than standard trading and it enables you to ‘pre-think’ the market, executing complex math in real time. We are no longer limited by human ‘bandwidth’, but the industry is secretive with few willing to share the secrets of their success. An Introduction to Algorithmic Trading is an introductory guide to this hugely popular area. It begins with demystifying this complex subject and providing readers with specific and usable algorithmic trading knowledge. It outlines the current trading algorithms, the basics of their design, what they...

Real-Time Video Compression: Techniques and Algorithms

Raymond Westwater, Borivoje Furht – Real-Time Video Compression: Techniques and Algorithms Publisher: Sрringer | 1996-10-31 | ISBN: 0585323135, 0792397878 | PDF | 176 pages | 2.67 MB Real-Time Video Compression: Techniques and Algorithms introduces the XYZ video compression technique, which operates in three dimensions, eliminating the overhead of motion estimation. First, video compression standards, MPEG and H.261/H.263, are described. They both use asymmetric compression algorithms, based on motion estimation. Their encoders are much more complex than decoders. The XYZ technique uses a symmetric algorithm, based on the Three-Dimensional Discrete Cosine Transform (3D-DCT). 3D-DCT was originally suggested for compression about twenty years ago; however, at that time the computational complexity of the algorithm was too high, it required large buffer memory, and was not as effective as motion estimation. We have resurrected the...

Live Data Structures in Logic Programs: Derivation by Means of Abstract Interpretation By Anne Mulkers Publisher: Spri.,.nger 1993 | 228 Pages | ISBN: 3540566945 , 0387566945 | PDF | 10 MB A common hazard for implementations of applicative programming languages is the excessive creation of garbage cells during program execution. The available run-time garbage collecting processes are expensive in time and often require a periodic disruption of the program execution. The present book addresses the problem of memory re-use for logic programs through program analysis rather than by run-time garbage collection. The static analysis is constructed as an application of abstractinterpretation for logic programs. The starting point is a previously developed application of integrated type and mode analysis, which basically supplies a description of the logical terms to which program variables can...
